Programme Note
Renaud Capuçon and Frank Braley open their three-concert Beethoven series with a programme of early masterworks.
The Three Sonatas Op.12 constantly dazzle and amaze with their daring, fearlessly entering into previously unexplored avenues of musical expression.
The duo's triumphant recording of Beethoven's complete violin sonatas for Virgin Classics was welcomed by The Guardian as 'the finest new cycle of the Beethoven violin sonatas to appear on disc in years'.
